In The Margins
Dani Torres can read anyone's coffee order, and nothing about what she wants.
Ground Floor opens at six-fifteen, and by the time Main Street stirs, Dani Torres has already read the room: who slept badly, who needs the short shot, whose almond croissant to set aside. She is a single mother, a trained urban planner, and the woman this town trusts about cortados. Three doors down, a carpenter named Caleb Rowan is restoring the old post office, pulling a dropped ceiling off ninety-year-old beams and letting the morning light tell him what the building wants to be.
Caleb reads buildings the way Dani reads people: completely, and from a careful distance. His coffee goes cold before he remembers it. Then a developer's plan for Main Street puts every small storefront in play, and the fight keeps ending up at Dani's counter, with the two of them on the same side of it. In the Margins is a cozy small-town romance about falling for the man three doors down when he was never on your list, and about being seen this clearly, by someone who slides the good cup the last two inches so you don't have to reach.
A small-town, single-mom, opposites-attract romance: a barista, the carpenter next door, and a beloved building worth saving. Closed-door, dual POV, with a corner coffee shop and a guaranteed happy ending.
Book 2 in The Bookshop on Main series. Can be read as a standalone.
